Are you ready for a climbing challenge ?
Riding from Chester this route takes you through some quintessentially Cheshire villages into Wales and up Hope Mountain. On a clear day the views of Cheshire and Wales are fabulous.
The climb up Hope Mountain is steep (greater than 1:5 in places) but it is relatively short, the descent requires caution (steep sections greater than 1:5 and loose gravel in places) but after this there's a gentle flow back towards Chester passing through Rossett with its two water mills.
Make sure yours gears are in good working order and be ready to use them.
